Compact Power House!!!

I bought this generator 2 weeks ago after Texas had the great power outage. I wired our house for the essentials and this generator will pull the load with room to spare. It's a fairly quiet generator that becomes louder with increased load (still quieter than my 5000-watt Coleman generator). Switch from gas to propane and never miss a beat. Great power out of a little package.

Great generator and customer service

So far so good... after a call to tech support to learn that the battery cable wasn't connected when it left the factory. That's ok, it was for shipping, but it should have been mentioned in the manual or a tag attached to the cable. I had to get a neighbor to manually pull the cord to start it but it took a call to tech support to find the real issue. Anyway, CS was real good and now it works like it should.

Easy start and switch between fuel types.

The pull, button and remote start all very easy to use. I like that if you are finished with it for the day, you can stop without going back out to the generator. Remote has a good distance. Change over from propane to gas is very easy; it runs a little rough as it makes the switch, but in a few seconds it goes back to smooth operation. Great features for the investment; it is a bit heavy if you are looking to load it into a truck, definitely a 2 man job. But if using a trailer and ramp, not too bad.

Best Generator We have Ever Owned

My wife and I have owned several generators in the past for backup power for our home in rural Oregon. By far the Westinghouse WGen9500DF is the best generator we have owned. It has ample power to run our home on gas or propane. The remote start is very very nice. It is very quiet compared to our old generators. The 50 amp service it is superior to the 30 amps on our previous generators. The generator came well packed and undamaged and was very simple to assemble the wheel package. It is a very well engineered unit. We highly recommend this generator.

SATISFIED SO FAR, OPERATING AS CLAIMED

Purchased a couple months ago, Started on propane for break in. Started and ran smoothly. Plugged a few different electrical devices in and seems to be a keeper. It is a bit louder than expected but not advertised as quiet so it is what it is. When I added all the provided oil it was on the low end of the dip stick, wish I had 1 to 2 more ounces of oil included.

This Generator is Amazing! We love it!

We bought this generator a few months ago and it has been one of the best purchases we have made. We love the feature of being able to switch between Propane and Gas. When we had a storm a few months ago, our area ran of our gas so the Propane feature was GREAT!!!

Easy to use, works as advertised

Exactly what we need to run the house when the power goes out. The wheels make moving to position easy; would be too heavy otherwise. Storms have become much more extreme and loss of power is more frequent. Hired an electrician to install the breaker, transfer switch and outside power outlet.

Powerful generator

Replaced a 5000 watt with this 9500 watt unit. Much quieter, more power and powers the whole house. Duel fuel and swap while still supplying power is a plus. I just back feed through A 50amp outlet in my garage once I open the main breaker at the panel. Had to make a special power cord for it.

BEST BANG FOR THE BUCK ON THE MARKET!!!

Picked up from the store, took it home, assembled quickly, hooked up a propane bottle and hit the remote. Fired right up!! Even forgot to choke it, but it fired right up. The only downside is, I had to go buy a quart of oil to top it off, no big deal. The oil that came with it is not quite enough.

Good, Robust generator.

Would 5star but it is really noisy. Buy this for your home, for EMERGENCY power or construction/home projects away from power. For that, noise isn't an issue. Its an emergency or a construction project. If you're looking for quiet, for camping site for example, look for a differene model. You'll hate the noise and so will everyone else in the campground.
